Ah, feels good to have this conversation.
I think most people are very grateful, but on occasion you do run into those who just WANT. And dang, it would be nice to have a little help now and then. I don't think I would be asking for much.
That is why I ask new forum members to read the following section first, but many DO NOT.
GUEST & MEMBERS PLEASE READ!!!!!
Thus I wind up answering the same questions over and over again and pointing them to the same links. If people simply read a few paragraphs before sending off a PM or an email, it would save me countless hours, and that is no joke. It would take care of the nitty-gritty and allow me to spend more time happily
answering more detailed questions.
Well, must run, have lots to do as usual. It's been a wonderful week at VI Corps. Lots to share with everyone soon. Have a blessed day!
PS. He IS a real gem. I wouldn't be able to do all this without him!!!!

Sounds good. Next time I will do just that. And if they give me any grief, I'll just send 'em on down the line to the brass, and they can explain it to da major, Major! ![]()

That sounds wonderful, and so helpful to many people trying to find info out on their families. Please post when you get the site up and going. I have many pictures I can add to the 1058th P & R Groups site showing the Remagen Bridge before and after colapse that my father had. Have pictures of some of his buddies also that someone might reconize.
